I can never turn back.
That got off track.
Will I always regret
the loss of civility?
With two people that I loved
that hurt me deeply.
I lashed out in anger
tired of being hurt.
To prove myself
to state my self-worth.
What am I trying to prove?
I made my statement
loud and clear.
They had both discarded me
No longer held me dear.
Did I reach my unstated goal?
Did I pull even?
Did I change my role?
Did I achieve the direction
I was trying to gain?
If so, why do I still
feel so much confusion and pain.
I made my statement
now what do I do?
Retreat to my safe place
and lick my wounds?
I wonder...
Will I ever get past this?
Will I ever heal?
These two episodes in my life
ever fresh and surreal.
Am I standing up to another father
so he won't do the same thing to his little daughter?
Their rejection was my story,
my life's underlying theme.
Do I just want someone held accountable
to give rise to my self-esteem?
